The first major professional tennis tournament of the year, the Australian Open, is underway now in Melbourne. New for the 2025 event is an alternate broadcast that makes players look like something out of Wii Sports. The Australian Open organizers rolled out what they are calling “AO Animated” versions of tennis matches this year, featuring animated, video game-looking versions of the real players.
